ANOTHER ELEGANT MANSION.

That Mr. John @. Ander"
SON VIII Erect Another Beautiful
Residence I'm New Haven In the Near
Future-ErecIing Another Fine Cot
tage at SaVIn Rock. -
1t was rumored on Chapel street yesterday,
and inquiry about town confirmed the report,
that Mr.. John G. Anderson meditates build
ing another elegant residence for himself at
no distant day, that gentleman having had
elaborate plans for one prepared. 1t is not
positive ly settled that it will be erected in
New Haven, but from remarks made by him
it is thought very probable that his decision
will be in favor of New Haven, decision
which will be highly gratifying to the New
Haven public in general. "Mr. Anderson
as said some of our prominent citizens, sis
gentleman New Haven can i'll afford to lose,
and a decision by him to locate another fine
residence here will be universally hailed with
pleasure, for Mr.. Anderson has shown him
self most public-spirited and generous citi-
zen, who uses his large wealth with liberal
hand in bestowing benefactions on
our charities and our public insti-
buttons; and not only upon these, but
in hundred ways uses his wealth to make
people happier and brighten their lives. Such
men are blessing to any city, and we all
say long life to such men," 1t is understood
that Mr.. Anderson will select location, if
he builds here, which will have more COM
handing outlook than the beautiful palatial
residence which he erected on Orange street
at cost, with grounds, of about $3.50, 900 (and
which he sold to President Clark for SAC, 600;
and that the plans call for residence which
will still further adorn and beautify our city.
Mr.. Anderson has just erected large and
handsome cottage near Sayin Rock shore. 1t
is q frame residence of artistic design, and
occupies the vacant lot just opposite the rear
grounds of his elegant shore residence, and
directly back Of the Edward Malfey shore res
idence It is another handsome addition to
Savin Rock shore property. The exterior
work is nearly completed.

Its Bones VIII Find a Permanent
Resting Place in the Anatomical
Department eff Xale's Medical school
The Dead Elephants Samson and
Oracle.
Barnum's famous hippopotamus will for
the future find resting place in New Haven,
it's bones having been secured for the ana
tomical department of the Yale Medical
school. This animal was almost the only
one that was not badly burned, it having
been protected by its thick hide and the
water in its tank. The Decentralization of its
bones for shipment required considerable
labor. The skin on its back was fully two
inches in thickness. Scientists from New
York were on the ground yesterday morning
after the brains of different animals, but did
not get that of the hippopotamus. The re-
mains of the other animals have been most
ly disposed of by burning. A few of the
least injured, among them those of lion,
have been secured with the valuable hippo
potamus bones for the Medical school.
Samson, the elephant burned at the Bar
mum show fire Sunday night, was the largest
elephant in this country. He was nine feet
high and ugly in proportion. He was form
erly used in the ring and even allowed to cart
children on his back, but he once killed
keeper, and from that time was kept on ex-
hibition only. Samson was about fifty years
old, and when on the road was always pe1-
verse and often almost unmanageable. He
had been burned and jabbed with pitchforks
and cut with hooks until he was SCARED as
prize fighter. He once, when angry at his
keeper s'Frenchy," threw him clean and slick
through wooden partition. "Frenchy" was
core for three months afterward, but not
permanently injured. Samson was very
doeile when at Central Park and never
seemed to mind the crowds gazing at him a
bit But when on country roads travelling
he caused great trouble, always raising a
rumpus, in consequence of which he was
always heavily shackled during the travelling
tours.
Oracle, the elephant drowned in the
Sound, was always doeile. The imaginative
press accounts stated that Oracle Commit
ted suicide" She was as playful and docile
as kitten and great favorite with the chill
dren.

Donations Coming in for the Thanks
giving Dinner.
Donations were received yesterday at the
hospital which will go towards providing a
Thanksgiving dinner for the ninety inmates.
More will come in to-day undoubtedly,
enough to provide a nice tempting dinner
for the patients.
The number who will eat their dinner at
the hospital this year will be about ninety,
less than that of last year, at which time
there were thirty-fve old soldiers in the in-
stitution, most of whom have since been re-
moved to the Soldiers Home at Noroton.
Six or seven remain who could not be re-
moved. The removal of the veterans has
lessened the receipts of the hospital as SO a
week was received from them. The old SOL
diers who were removed to Noreton are well
pleased with that institution and will no
doubt enjoy an excellent Thanksgiving din
ner.
Donations for Thanksgiving dinner at the
hospital may be left at Jacob Broschart's in
the City market, at Charles Reeds, opposite
the postofice, or may be sent directly to the
hospital.

The final games in the football series will
be played on the Polo grounds tomorrow;
Wesleyan and Pennsylvania in the morning,
Harvard and Yale in the afternoon.
Tickets for the west end of the grand
stand for the Harvard game are for sale at
Beers and the coop. for one dollar each.
Harvard will conduct the service Sunday
evening next at Dockstader's theater, New
York.
The Prineetonia says Princeton will put

The New York City club will eat its an
nual dinner Wednesday evening November

plate.
Princeton has demanded meeting of the
advisory committee to decide upon its pro-
test of the game with Harvard arising from
the disqualification of Cowan by Umpire
Terry. The college acknowledges she was
squarely beaten by Yale, but does not in
the case of Harvard. It is reported that
Princeton will bet on Yale and will cheer
for the blue on the Polo grounds tomorrow.
A. Graves will play in the Harvard game
tomorrow, as will also Woodruff. 1t is now
certain that W. Graves can play, his father
having consen ted to his playing in this game.
Wallace, of the team, the elder Graves
Monday and obtained his consent. Har-
a,1 ico o. vic tn and
the mass of Yale students are likewise. The
game is going to be very close and it is a
noticeable fact that in the betting each side
is asking odds. The Yale team seems to be
none the worse for its wetting of Saturday,
and has hardly a cold to show for it. The
men go to New York to-day, having put in
their last practice work yesterday. 1t is
probable that New York will witness to NOR
row one of the finest games of football that
has ever been played.
While the football team were practising
some tricks at the Field yesterday several
strangers were observed taking notes, and
when Captain Beecher's at tention was called

were Harvard men, taking notes in the inter-
est of the Harvard team for to-morroW's
game.
Crawford '86, now of the Harvard law
school, half back on Captain Peters team,
was at the F1eld yesterday looking at the
team practice. He expressed himself very
favorably on the work of the men and thinks
they will cut out a game tomorrow that
Harvard cannot match.
Williams alone has scored against Harvard
this season, and Wesleyan has been the only
team to make point in game with Yale.
Yale has beaten Princeton seven seasons
out of ten since 1876 In 1881 and 1886 the
games were drawn. Princeton won in 1878
and 1885.
The victory of Yale over Princeton was
the most decisive Yale has obtained over
that eleven since 1875, when Yale won, 2
goals, touchdown to 0.
